I am talking about quarters, not joints or bowls.

I am not ~this~ close... I have seen... uhh somewhere... a quarter laced with meth... on multiple occasions... from different 'distributors'

im shocked this thread got so long. holy crap. you weirdos are going for it!!

LOL

I thought I meandered in to the MTB forum :roflmao:

I'm giving up the booze....























thread.

Thinking is six drinks by myself means a problem but twelve drinks with friends is having fun. Makes sense to me.

the problem of distribution is most strongly associated with its prohibition.

the same or even worse problems exist with legally distributed products (ex. oil/gas, diamonds, coca cola in latin america, etc.).

other than some possibly anecdotal evidence, i would like to know what you are using in support of your claim: "the person(s) cutting the substance down to individual delivery packages do not clean off the crystal meth or acid off the table... why bother? So... you end up getting more than mary jane."

also, historically illegal for a relatively short time, in the grand scheme of its legal use; i believe it was prohibited in 1937. of course, the impossible to get high from, yet incredibly profitable and easy to manipulate hemp got lumped in too.

also, geographical and social location will play a huge factor in the quality and channels of distribution. i doubt a significant portion of cannabis users in California have a hard time finding a non-meth-ridden distributor.

me too.

if you need me ill be in the 33's alcohol status thread

Nuff said on the booze. We all know that a cyclist real enemy is a fool in a car on a cell phone.

Why qualify "on a cell phone"?Seems to me there is plenty of fools out there.

Because they are the variety of fool most likely to get us killed.

If you wanna run cool, that is. :)

I think that generally, the older you get, and more responsibilities you take on, the less you drink.

When I was younger, I wasn't ever an alcoholic, but I was definitely a binge drinker. Never drank at home alone, but when I went out, I would always pickle myself.

These days, with a wife, work, a child and a tight schedule, I drink maybe once every couple of months.

It's not that I dislike drinking, I just place a higher premium on my free time, and don't want to spend it inebriated.

Then there's the hangover... I hate hate hate (3 times for emphasis) the feeling of being even slightly incapacitated.

There's nothing worse than not being able to do something you want because you feel crappy, by your own fault.

Next February, hopefully, will be 20 years without drinking but I eat about 1 cow a year. LOL.

Well said.

Except for a wife, and then the kids being in college, same story here.

I'm slowly starting to relate...also the less I drink the less I care to drink. It becomes bothersome when it upsets your stomach or just makes you drowsy because you aren't pounding them to get wasted. I used to drink like 4-5 post ride with friends...now I might finish 1...might. I prefer lots of water and a beer just before sleep to help calm my nerves

I dont believe in quitting anything completely. I've certainly reduced the amount of drinking I do since my college days 7 years ago, but I still enjoy quality beer, wine, and liquor.

As you get older, this will present a new problem :lol:

Calms the nerves, but what does it do to the ol bladder?

In my mid 30's I am becoming less and less tolerant of hangovers. I think to myself, you get ONE day off (when we're busy at work anyway) and you're going to spend it on the couch with a headache!? What a waste.

After you have two or three beers, if you're like me, you'll have this deep stirring in your loins. It's a primal urge to have another beer. I have learned to talk to this urge, bring him out in the light, learn his name and his nature, and say, "F you! I'm stopping. I want to get up and ride tomorrow."

My brother quit binge drinking and only drinks on special occasions. Now he has a six pack. :notamused: (- jealousy)

(Not sure if this post was on topic...)

Yeh, damnit.
